Hi! I’m 18 and got hired on as an Assistant waiter! This was abt a month ago that I accepted my offer and I m still waiting on Anderson Kelly, just resending in signed documents. How long did your MMC medical, and then to Training take for you? Are you still on the POA how’s it going?

So glad I found this channel!! Super cool to see any ship life videos but even more unique being on POA since it’s a U.S. ship! Thanks for all the info, my question is, is there a crew gym or can you use the regular gym?
@@krista.jocelyncan I ask if you know if youth staff is yellow card ? I have an interview and previously worked on DCL where we had good guest privileges ( pools , movie theatre etc ) and don’t know how I would go without having those things to do
Hey Krista! Not sure if your remember me, but I’m Austin Jones. I was a restaurant steward on board the POA and I’ve gotta say I absolutely loved ship life! Best part is just getting to see and explore all of Hawaii. I unfortunately got fired about a month and a half ago due to being tardy too much and fraternizing with another guest during my free time. It’s very sad because I did not even make it to my probation period, which would have been a few days ago. I definitely learned my lesson though the hard way. Anyway, I am definitely planning on reapplying in 5 more months, which will be around April next year. Do your write ups and everything you did wrong disappear permanently off your files after a certain period of time? Fortunately, I’ve already attended Piney Point and have my MMC and TWIC, so I would most likely just be sent to Hawaii from my home if they take me back. Great video, and wish me luck with getting back on in 6 months!
Thank you! Really appreciate your kind words. What I could do is call up the shipboard talent acquisition specialist (the person who interviewed and recruited me from home) and ask him those questions. I’m sure they will assume that I have learned my lesson and promise to improve myself for my next contract. Fingers crossed!!
Since we're in Hawaii the whole time you don't need much! Just stuff for the beach and warm weather! You can get everything you need at stores near the port which is really convenient!
Hi! Cruise staff does have guest area privileges and depending on occupancy they do have a chunk of time off during the day, but not usually a full day off.

Hi Krista, Your channel is really fun and interesting. We are sailing on your ship next month and I'm a dancer. Are there any opportunities for lessons/classes given on the ship? :)

Hello, cool video, wonderful, I enjoyed spending time with you, thanks for the pleasant company, friendly like, come visit, I will be very happy, good luck and have a good weekend
Thankfully since we were in Hawaii I was able to go to target and the mall each week if I needed to. But if the ship isn't in the US ill normally stock up on everything before I go of my favorite products. Packages can usually be sent to larger ports!
@@krista.jocelyndo you know if they got time off near the end of your time on POA? How long from applying till you got on the ship? I know that POA is constantly cycling through people because there quitting but it’s still something I want to shoot my shot at since I’ve been hired. My medical is still with Anderson Kelly. I’ve heard online for some it can take 4-5 months. I’m gonna start college and really don’t want to lose my job/opportunity since I don’t want to put my life on pause for potentially 5 more months when I know nothing of when it’ll be ready
Having lived in a cabin on Deck 2, we had a porthole and water would usually splash up over it. We called the room the “ washing machine”.
So glad to watch this! Once I finish all my medical hoops, I should be joining POA as Shore Excursions staff. Look forward to meeting you!
Yay!! We'll see you soon! :)

Hi! Love your videos, looking into getting into the industry. Just wondering how long your contracts have been with POA etc.
Thanks for such an informative video.
Thanks for watching! 🤗
Oops! Forgot to ask. What are the clothes you wish you packed and things you wished you left at home?
Since we're in Hawaii the whole time you don't need much! Just stuff for the beach and warm weather! You can get everything you need at stores near the port which is really convenient!
Thanks for posting such and informative video!I'm thinking about it Subbed ya!!🤔
This is so helpful. I hope my daughter gets to meet you!
Glad it was helpful! :)
When you were student you were probably doing safety drills at school as a teacher I know I am still doing those safety drills.
That’s true! Just different types of drills
So why do you guys get to go share a cabin as since your just dating and not married you guys are the lucky ones
Hey,do you know maybe about recreation staff,do they have some privileges and time off? Thank you 🥰

How long did your MMC medical, and then to Training take for you?
Are you still on the POA how’s it going?
Good job, interesting.
I just talked to the hiring manager how long does it take to know if and when I get hired
It really depends on position. As a performer it can take months to hear back but they really need staff so I don’t imagine it would be long!
Have you started yet? If so, how long did it take to go to the training after the medical check up?

So if I got to work on a cruise ship and get assigned a cabin on a deck under water, I guess I'll have to bring scooba gear.
What color is cruise staff the cruise staff? That does cruise programs. What color card are they?
I’ll be joining POA soon. Right now I’m still waiting for them to schedule me for STCW training 😅
Yay! Have a good contract! 🤗

How can I join American cruise ship life if you have any ideas please give me advice?
How do you get supplies like toiletries, makeup, skincare, packages etc.?
Thankfully since we were in Hawaii I was able to go to target and the mall each week if I needed to. But if the ship isn't in the US ill normally stock up on everything before I go of my favorite products. Packages can usually be sent to larger ports!

On which cruise line you work..

I know at the current moment due to short staffing they didn’t have a lot of time off but hopefully as they get more staff they will!!
@@krista.jocelyn thanks I will keep that in mind,take care!
@@krista.jocelyndo you know if they got time off near the end of your time on POA?
How long from applying till you got on the ship? I know that POA is constantly cycling through people because there quitting but it’s still something I want to shoot my shot at since I’ve been hired.
My medical is still with Anderson Kelly.
I’ve heard online for some it can take 4-5 months.
I’m gonna start college and really don’t want to lose my job/opportunity since I don’t want to put my life on pause for potentially 5 more months when I know nothing of when it’ll be ready
